    On this, the 5th anniversary of the podcast I read a special, slightly longer story than usual.

    In H.P. Lovecraft's archetypal tale of cosmic horror, the narrator describes how after finding a number of unusual items in his late uncle's belongings he discovers details of a series of increasingly disturbing events. Further investigation reveals evidence of an ancient horror lying deep beneath the Pacific and the terrible realisation that there are still those in the world that may be affected by its malevolent influence.
